Marriage to US Citizen
I am on H2b visa and married to an American. Should I go ahead and start filing my paper work or should I wait on till my contract is up with the company I am currently working for?
I see no reason to wait.

I want to know if I am applying for both my parents to immigrate I do know I need to do 2 separate petitions. But do I need to pay to pay 2 separate fees as well, or what is the process please help thanks.
As far as I remember, separate forms are needed for parents. Read the instructions on Form I-130.
I received a complete official transcript and a letter confirming that I have completed all the requirements of the master degree. The university's next graduation date is Jan-30 2009 when I will get the diploma. Can I apply for EB2 on my complete official transcript or I have to wait until I get the diploma.
Generally speaking, under immigration law we focus on when the degree was completed - NOT when the formal diploma was conferred. Speak with your lawyers.
I am a US Citizen and I filled the forms for my brother to come here, but I want his son also to come because he is a very skilled computer programmer and I need him in my business. I included him in my petition form but he is 25, is it possible for him to come here? They are in Cuba.
Look into a work visa option for him (H-1, H-2B, etc). Family-based would take too long.
If I file under EB2 in same educational qualifications, so in which stage it would be chances to denied. I mean in Labor, 140 or 485?
Your education/qualifications are USUALLY questioned in great detail at the I-140 stage. But USCIS or DOL can question any of these matters at any stage. I have seen approved I-140's being reopened and denied at the I-485 stage.
I am a US Citizen, my husband is a permanent resident whose green card expires in Nov. 09. Does it automatically get renewed or am I required to sign something? And what happens if I am contemplating a divorce. Does he get deported?
If he has a "permanent green card," divorce has no impact on it and renewal is a minor process in which your signature is not needed. If he has a conditional green card, he is required to file Form I-751 (read the instructions), where if the marriage was entered into in good faith, he can obtain his permanent green card even without your signatures.
I do have a question regarding EB2 eligibility. I earned a Bachelor degree in Science(B.Sc with Physics subject-which is not related to IT) from India(3 years) and also earned Masters in Computer (MCA in IT) (3 Years). So will I be able to file my employment Green card in EB2 category if I file my Green card in IT based company?
It is possible, but tell your lawyers to draft the PERM application carefully, so if EB2 is denied, EB3 should still be approved.
I am looking for your advice here, my online case status for denied I-140's appeal I-290B as "The I290B NOTICE OF APPEAL TO THE COMMISSIONER was transferred and is now being processed at a USCIS office." this status is there for past 19 months with no further updates, recenetly opened SR recieved response saying my case is pending at AAO office in washington, which one is correct,Is my case transfered back to USCIS or still with AAO any idea. is there anyway to expedite my denied/appeal I-140 I am on 7th year H1b extension. Incase appeal denied what are the options I have.
Call AAO directly. They should be able to tell you what is going on. If the case was transferred back to CIS, that is at least partly good news. That means the appeal was not denied. As to options, you need to make an appointment for consultation with your own lawyers or us.
